Lyric, a typeface that sings in wide range 🎶
Discover our new typeface Lyric, Cedar updates, and upcoming workshops—your design journey awaits!

Choose Lyric for your voice
Mannered, funky, decorative, and stately: our typeface Lyric sings in a surprisingly wide range. You may have seen this one before—it has already been used beautifully for several restaurants, book designs, and packaging systems. Jesse started Lyric early in his career, and he has finally picked it up again with an eye toward finishing it. Now it’s publicly available, while still in progress.

Cedar keeps growing
Thanks to type design help from our long-time collaborator Vanna Vu, Cedar’s progress has also become un-stuck a big update coming very soon. License the v0.2 Romans now before the price goes up, and you’ll receive v0.3 with Italics and variable fonts automatically when we add them.
